It’s that time of year when many of us are wrapping presents.
Which means it’s time for us here at Industry Today to present our wrap up of significant trends and issues manufacturers faced during the past year.
The unabated skilled labor shortage (nearly 860,600 unfilled just last September) is expected to worsen by 2030. Solutions to the Skills Gap is just one example of our continuing coverage of this urgent topic.
MFG Day is one approach to drum up interest in manufacturing careers. This year, more than 500 companies participated. How to Recruit More Women to Your Workforce underpins that effort.
While automation reduces the labor needs in some areas, at the same time it creates more high-tech jobs. Robotics’ Impact on US Manufacturing Today and Tomorrow notes how this attracts much needed younger workers who grew up during the digital age. How to attract these workers? See Recruiting Like an Influencer as well as Upgrading Culture for Manufacturing 4.0 for just a few of the ideas we’ve presented in 2022.
Speaking of Industry 4.0, we’ve been talking about this for a while now, and we’re still not quite there. How to overcome the hurdles to digitization? Organization’s Secret to a Seamless Digital Transition and 3 Ways AR/VR Can Improve Manufacturing Processes offer suggestions.
The pandemic continues to reshape industry, especially supply chain disruption. Addressing the Great Semiconductor Shortage and Plan B for Potential Dock Worker Strikes are but two examples of how industry seeks to overcome this disruption with more diverse and closer-to-home supply chain strategies.
